  154. have to do it, but he did walk with me

  155. just for a few minutes.

  156. And I'm gonna close outright and made this. Your banker

  157. calls you over Friday afternoon and he says he has

  158. some good news. Just imagine an anonymous Donnar donor who

  159. loves you has a Saturday deposit eighty six thousand, four

  160. hundred pennies into your bank account every morning starting Monday morning.

  161. Jesus, that's eight.

  162. Hundred and sixty four dollars a day, Saturdays a week,

  163. fifty two weeks a year.

  164. That sounded pretty good.

  165. Huh, they suppose to. Baker says, there's one stipulation. You

  166. have to spend all the money that same day.

  167. That is a problem.

  168. Right, you can't carry over any balance, and at midnight

  169. the bank will counsel whatever you got, but whatever you

  170. fail to use.

  171. But the good news is that you're gonna get.

  172. Six thousand dollars a week, three hundred and fifteen thousand

  173. dollars a year, praise God. But remember whatever you don't spend,

  174. you lose. So every morning there's a God who controls

  175. the universe, who deposits into the bank of.

  176. Your life eighty six thousand, four hundred seconds of time

  177. every day and the same anything applies.

  178. You got to use it because, prays God, you gotta

  179. use it all up. But the next day, prays out,

  180. tomorrow gonna be depositive to your account. God deposited the

  181. same amount of time and every one's account every day.

  182. Nothing is carried on to the next day. Your life

  183. is just like that money. You can spend it in

  184. the way you want to, but you only get to

  185. spend it once, and you only get to spend it

  186. on a damn basis. Every day God depositive, pays God

  187. himself into your day, prays got he deposited your blesses

  188. it to your day, prays off every day.

  189. Usually the new balance pays tme put it up. You

  190. use halleen and I too to spend it. Place in God.
